Throughout our lives, we all seek that miracle elixir which will hold off the inevitable aging process.

Here are my top tips.

Start now..... it is never too late!

Stay hydrated – drink lots of water – and flush out all those toxins

Protect your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays – use minimum SPF15

Keep your skin clean – use a soft cloth and don’t scrub

Moisturise your skin every day

Eat healthily – know what and how to eat – don’t eat more calories than you need

Keep active – don’t go for a single day without 30 minutes of physical activity

Do Yoga for the face – it’s great fun!

Be happy – laugh a lot and think positively to trigger those endorphins

Go for a younger, carefree look – visit your hairdresser for a younger makeover

Try something new or wacky!

Wear colour to compliment your skin

Keep those pearly whites white – everyone likes a brilliant smile

Say “No” to facial hair (a man thing!) – takes years off you!

Lose the glasses – get contact lenses

Meditate for a few minutes a day every day – find time for you

Sleep well – and if you have difficulty go back to meditation, or try some herbal teas or aromatherapy

Sex after 50 – sex at middle age can be better and more satisfying

Live long and live happy!
